I purchased LS1Edit for $800 about one year ago.

I bleive this was a rip off but it was the only software available at the time.

What is HP software, how much does it cost and can it be used on multiple ECUs?

You are correct.

www.hptuners.com It costs like $500, and it has it's own scanning software so you don't need A-Tap. You can use it only multiple vehicles of the same year model. It is year/model locked, not VIN locked. That should make it easier to get rid of than a Hypertech Power-Poopmaker.

There a few things that it can't change that edit can (cough cough knock sensitivity), but they are adding new things every few months (an update is due out the 15th of this month) and you never know what they will add. One of their big changes is that you will be able to read air/fuel ratios with the scanner (wideband or narrowband 02, narrowband behing inaccurate away from the normal 14.7:1 ratio) which is really going to be cool. And there are plenty of things you can change on HP Tuners that edit can't.

Edit was wonderful in its day. Unfortunately it is outdated, ugly, unfriendly, overpriced, and it does not have a built in scanner. HP Tuners appears to be more attentive to people's needs, and they have a very nice product. Sometimes my wife probably hates them though, because I will spend hours in front of sensor logs, VE tables, and timing tables. But oh well.
